Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index; CB1R, cannabinoid 1 receptor; FWE-corr, family-wise error corrected for multiple comparisons; T, peak voxel t-statistic; KE, cluster size extent; MNI, Montreal Neurological Institute.

The location and t-statistic of the local maxima of brain regions showing significant inverse correlations between log BMI and CB1R availability are presented (thresholded at PFWE-corrected<0.05, both at the voxel and cluster levels (T>4.02)).

Cluster also overlaps with the midbrain.
